Easy portage with a slight up and over. By paddle, this portage is way back in a bay and can take a long while to reach. It is also accessible by tow boat and can occasionally get motor traffic as well.

Water was high enough to take out a couple of heavier packs and walk our canoes from the bay into the lake. Easier than off loading the whole kit.

easy short portage. River/rapids that this portage bypasses looks like it could be "run" if water was higher.

When we went water was up, just canoed right through it, really easy.
